Nice Pussy.

Seats add up to less than 40 as sometimes parties get more seats than they have candidates.
It would make sense for these and vacant seats to be filled by the PP
This would also allow members of congress to resign 🙂
congratz to worstPCP for their takeover of TUP Mongress once again...
The Pirate Cat Party did what now?
Pirate Cat Party are bestPCP...
The TUP/PCP would have got an extra seat if they had run another candidate!
The WRP would have won an extra seat with 1 more vote even if that came from TUP!
Amazing how two parties can't even fill enough mongress seats. Leadership in your parties is terrible. You should be ashamed.
UKPP also nominated only 11 candidates.
How were we to know TUP/PCP would be so popular
I suspect childish trolling by some people can only have helped
Noted. Kravenns candidacy for next month: confirmed.
You are still a group of useless twats, especially you 😃
Aimed at Keithunder, not jamesw...
Maybe if Wayne and co had spent a bit of time advancing the positives of their own party and slate of candidates, rather than always denigrating others they may have done better. Or they could concentrate on trying to get the eUK out of the mess they've created - all I can see at present is an attempt to bankrupt eUK citizens with Colombia's 7% WT.
What are you talking about? We finished in a better position than last election (then 3rd, now 2nd)
If only Paul would actually take notice of numbers and facts. Best PCP third largest party, second most mongress votes and the best percentage of party members voting.
Why is a eYank even interested in eUKs internal politics? Ah yes that's right, you ran away at the first sign of a fight and now like to think you are better then others. It's people like you, Paul that have ruined the eUK over the years.
The only people bankrupting themselves would be the idiots that can't do the maths and realise when it is profitable to work or not work.
Lol jimmy, like you could convince Kravenn to return to our shores... The man is too much of a pussy to do that!
Maybe if the Pirate Cat Party CP would get off his ass and either
1) get Colombia to agree to the training war; or
2) get some support from our allies to kick them out
then they might stand a chance at become the better PCP. We had over a million CC sitting around as bait for a MTO, but nothing gets spent on COs for the RWs. What's the incentive for Colombia to give back regions or agree to a TW when we just sit patiently and let them occupy us? Make them dump a few 100k in COs to hold onto the territory and it might at least force them to the negotiating table.
"Ah yes that's right, you ran away at the first sign of a fight and now like to think you are better then others."
From the guy who quit the game after his dictatorship failed and keeps telling people he's the greatest eUK player ever.
If your going to troll people at least try not to look like a hypocrite...
You do realise that it costs 1 million to start a coup right? Having cash in the treasury unless it's a vast amount is never the reason for starting one. Most of the time its either lulz or a power grab.
Feel free to open any RW you fancy Jim and tank us to victory. The only way we can make Colombia waste 100k's of cc is if we wasted millions of cc. The fact that eUSA has 12m lying about for CO's and many more millions hidden way, makes that game a stupid one to play. I personally have spent 120k without even trying to win regions
Rory with his stories once again. When have I ever backed down from a fight? From taking control of UKPP from Nick and Alfa, to defeating Keers, Dapper, BigAnt and anyone else that got in my way.
It was never a secret that once I had been CP my passion for the game died. I had announced on more than one occasion that I was leaving the game, which was probably the reason Serf pushed for me to become dictator. To say I ran away after my dictatorship failed is a lie (it was game mechanics that made it impossible to hold on to technically), seeing as I was still logging in 6 weeks later. It was sometime around Fata's term that I eventually stopped logging in daily. Like it or not Rory, for bad or for worse, I've been one of the most influential eUKers. What other groups gave you want we did? 100% bonuses and a great starting base to do a Lithuania (we called it doing a sLOVEnia back then). You are more then welcome to try and write your own chapter in the eUK history books Rory.
"When have I ever backed down from a fight? From taking control of UKPP from Nick and Alfa, to defeating Keers, Dapper, BigAnt and anyone else that got in my way."
So what exactly has been gained by defeating everyone who got in your way?
This for me highlights the contrast in how you and I differ in our approach. I want us all to succeed collectively for the good of the nation. For me one person or even a small group of people succeeding whilst all else withers is not something to be proud of and even if I could beat you, I wouldn't want to because it would achieve nothing. What exactly is the benefit to the eUK and its community of a last man standing gladiatorial approach? When you've defeated everyone else and you alone are left standing, then what?

This is where you get me all wrong Paul, I don't fight the man, only his methods and ideas. In order for the eUK to progress we need the competition of ideas, we require the debates and the arguments so that the best ideas rise to the top. I/we 'beat' them by swinging popular opinion towards my/our ideas. Surely that is the epitome of this game...
You may of noticed that I've worked alongside every single one of my 'opponents' before, during and after our ideas have won through. It's only those that take my challenge of their ideas as a personal attack that have ever had a problem with me and a dislike. Hell, when Malice ran for CP against Chewy, he ran a perfect UKPP manifesto with the backing of Keers. Sometimes it can get nasty, but that is not exclusive to just one side.
And if i'm not mistaken, your side launched an attack on me and my friends when you noticed that I had returned. If anyone threw the first punch upon my return, it was the side of the fence which you reside. So I would suggest you take a closer look at your claim of being 'in it collectively' and reappraise your line of thinking. In it together as long as people follow your narrative, would be a more truthful statement.
Yes, it's true that I value the individual, I've helped build up more accounts in the eUK then most people, yourself included and I've always encouraged players to play the game however they see fit. If we had a nation full of strong individual accounts with a good grasp of game mechanics, when we came together as a collective we would be unstoppable. This was the whole thinking behind the 'Elite Cabal' PM's. I brought together all the top people from all walks of life, regardless of my personal feeling towards them in an attempt to gather the best ideas of how to build accounts efficiently and the best ways of using game mechanics so that you guys could then go back to your respective groups and foster that thinking while still being able to keep your identity.
"This is where you get me all wrong Paul, I don't fight the man, only his methods and ideas."
Really... I only see you attacking people,
"Leadership in your parties is terrible. You should be ashamed."
" It's people like you, Paul that have ruined the eUK over the years."
"(kraven) The man is too much of a pussy to do that!"
That's just in the comment section of this article! I don't see any critical analysis of anyone's methods or ideas, just shit talking people for the fun of it.
There is a divide in the UK and it makes the game more boring than it should be, governments are now filled without advertising positions and encouraging people to get involved. It just gets done by friends of friends and depending what side your on you'll either get a free ride or roasted mercilessly for a month for no good reason. We should collectively be encouraging players to do more, get more involved, not disregarding anything anyone says or does for banter cus they're not in your party.
For all the cool shit you've done for the UK, and there is a lot, it'd be a shame if helping create a toxic UK was the last thing you get remembered for.
@Rory
Well it was only a few days ago he was threatening to PTO TUP - hardly the actions of a responsible vCP.
In addition I have long suspected they are just playing games to see just how far they can take the eUK with their trolling to get their kicks - didn't Wayne convince us to raise the minimum wage a few months back and now claims it was all a joke and wanted to lower it again?
Wayne is now complaining that he was not welcomed back with open arms upon his return:-
"And if i'm not mistaken, your side launched an attack on me and my friends when you noticed that I had returned. If anyone threw the first punch upon my return, it was the side of the fence which you reside."
Now let's remember where we were when he returned and his friends started rallying round him. At the time he left he claimed he had taken money from the eUK, money that we desperately needed. He claimed the eUK had debts and that the money he took did not even cover those.
He has stated since his return that what he claimed when he left was not true. But remember at the time he returned we could only go on what he had told us before! We had believed what he said, accepted he was a thief and moved on. The community had come together after Wayne left, so when he returned and UKPP started rallying round him, alarm bells quite naturally started ringing loudly.
I finish by making the obvious statement - If it's true that he didn't take any of our money, then instead of blaming us for believing him after he claimed he did, perhaps he should consider not telling porkies?
Again, I think you are over egging the 'divide'. Compared to the past, we live in a time of relative peace. A few snide remarks here and there from all sides ain't exactly the end of the world. It's not the 'toxic' environment that is causing the inevitable death of the community it's the apathy. Arrlo above and many others, have stated time again that the biggest issue is the game. We have no real different way to play the game, options are limited and as such we are out of fresh ideas and passion. We tried just about every combination in the 10 years the game has been running and the community has missed chances that have been presented to us.
What does this leave us with? Bickering between ourselves and point scoring. It isn't just one side, it's from all sides. I'm quite ready to let sleeping dogs lie and put the past behind us while we attempt to write a new chapter in the eUK history books together. Since my return, I've only ever reacted, it was 'your' side that threatened to ostracise 'my' side, 'your' side decided to take the fight to the public sphere
Shake hands and start coming up with ideas on how to get us out of this rut? The balls in your court.
As for Past Governments, they have included just about every Top 5 party. So I don't see how one group is holding another group back This year past year, we might as well not have had a MoFA and a MoD for most of it.
It's well and good asking for help, but most of the time there is very little to actually do and very little that people do when in the role. That's why I suspect 90% of the time the Candidate just goes and asks those that he know will actually do something when required.
imo, people want to be spending some time building up the communities in their own parties and MU's first and foremost, then we can work on improving Government roles.
"Bickering between ourselves and point scoring. It isn't just one side, it's from all sides. I'm quite ready to let sleeping dogs lie and put the past behind us while we attempt to write a new chapter in the eUK history books together."
Fair enough - maybe that's the best thing that anyone's said for a while and to be frank I was surprised just how few people seem to care what happened 2,3,5 or 10 years ago!
BP lost a vote .. but it made no difference
